BOSTON (AP) — A decorated Boston police officer remained in a medically induced coma Saturday, a night after he was shot in the face by a man with several gun convictions during a traffic stop that ended when other officers fatally shot his attacker, the city's police commissioner said.

Officer John Moynihan, 34, was struck just below his right eye, and the bullet remains lodged below his right ear, Commissioner William Evans said. He was listed in critical condition,

Evans said Moynihan is undergoing tests and is being monitored for bleeding in his brain. "We are hoping and praying there's not further damage," Evans said.

"He's a fighter. I am sure he's going to pull through," the commissioner said.

By “shot by a man”, does that mean shot by an “elder teen”?

Angelo West, the shooter, looks to be too old to be one of Obama's sons, but might be his brother.

Isn't this where in the past the cops acted stupidly?

Typical white / jew controlled media crap. This is the same stuff they puled on us when half a million (+130K) measly dollars went to each man, woman, and child who endured their xenophobic republican katrina. Why is it a surprise to learn the great storms etc. are caused by the very people who support BIG OIL? Why iis it a surprise to learn that the very RACIST people who are behind the WHITE POLAR BEAR HOLOCAUST are behind the DEATH OF THE BLACK MAN by nefarious means such as working for large European corporations? When will it end? It will end when the fat-cat capitalists say enough is enough. I demand this promise from the white elite, if they are willing to stop getting raped, shot, etc. - "No longer will we oppress the blacks," - "No longer will we force black cops to arrest their brothers for murder and other revolutionary acts," - "No longer will we force black people to serve the establishment as business owners, ivy league grads, etc., Frankly, NOI was right. Louis Farrakhan was right. Read the charter: it is the duty of "the ruling culture" to make reparations, to build cities and businesses for others, and then, to walk away.... (Please read your NOI literature if you don't know what I am talking about...) JOIN WITH US! ONE FACE IS A TRAGEDY, A MILLION IS A STATISTIC! KEEP GUNS OUT OF THE HANDS OF THE LAW-ABIDING! MAY STORIES LIKE THESE NEVER SEE THE LIGHT OF DAY....

This is unpossible! The perp had gun convictions! He was a prohibited possessor! He couldn't have guns, because... because, laws!

This policeman is in bad shape because a bad man did an evil thing. That's the long and short of it. Laws don't stop evil men. Armed citizens, whether they are wearing a badge or not, stop evil men.
